Unlike the best jinks and the dynamic scene after skiing that permeates the Rocky Alps and Mountains, Japan gives a meditative delight on its tracks. Ski here is an almost respectful matter.

“It is not a consultation to rest in the sun or party between races,” said Sari Levy, 46, who lives in Telluride, Colorado, and returned from his time skiing to Japan. “These are snow and skiing, skiing, skiing. “

It is barely greater to stick to this directive. Japan recently enjoys an banner ski season. The Hakuba Valley, the largest ski domain in the country, has already registered 370 inches of dust, marking its maximum snow season in more than a decade. With the stations that remain open until then in April and maybe May, there are many opportunities to sculpt new clues.

And what avenues! Japan is known for taking Western establishments, whether they are whiskey decomposition stores, jazz or 7 -and refine them in anything itself. Ski is no exception. Entted in Japan in 1911 through an adult in the Austrohungal Army, Theodor von Lerch, on Mount Kanaya, skiing has an integral component of the country’s external culture, with more than 500 stations in its mountainous islands.

In the center of Japanese skiing they delight in the snow itself: light, dry and deliciously abundant. This divine dust, known as “Japow”, is the result of a Siberian Arctic wind that sweeps the sea of ​​Japan, where it collects moisture before colliding against the levels of application of the islands of northern Japan.

For maximum skiers, spongy and dry snow that turns out to fall that Almaximum is the fabric of dreams.

With the US dollar lately strong and tickets, hotels and foods more affordable than the western resorts, a ski holiday for Japan can look like an intelligent offer. The value of a foreign flight is gently compensated through the relatively low load to access to the endless dust and the perfect facilities.
